Katie Price's father-in-law has reportedly been sent to the same prison as his son, Lee Andrews, in Dubai. The ex-glamour model married Lee in January, but their relationship has been marred by controversy.
Lee was initially arrested in May after failing to board a flight to the UK for a joint interview on Good Morning Britain. He claimed he was detained on suspicion of espionage, but reports later linked his arrest to unpaid debts.
According to The Sun, Lee's father, Peter, has now joined him at Al Awir prison after being reported to authorities by a third party. Both are said to be facing allegations of fraud.
A friend told the outlet: "It is quite astonishing – you really couldn't make this up. But both Lee and his dad are now behind bars, in the same prison. Lee maintains his innocence, and is hoping to pay off his outstanding debts and get out of that hell hole as quickly as possible."
The friend added that friends are urging Katie to leave Lee, saying she is "furious with it all, and fed up with all the drama and white noise her husband is bringing."
Mirror has contacted Katie's representatives for comment. Last weekend, Andrews was taken to Lahbab police station and given a £120,000 fine. He reportedly told a friend he might need Katie to bail him out, though she has not paid anything.
